The park says all facilities and trails are open. This includes the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail.

"We are excited to be back at work and welcome visitors to Cuyahoga Valley National Park," said Acting Superintendent Paul Stoehr. "Autumn colors have peaked this week and now is a perfect time to experience nature's beauty in your national park."

The reopening is welcome news not just for the park but the surrounding businesses that rely on it.

This is a peak time for visitors because of the interest in the fall foliage.
